Abstract
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Modulkasten (1) zur Aufnahme von vier Getränkeflaschen-Gebinden, wobei jedes Getränkeflaschen-Gebinde sechs Getränkeflaschen mit einem Nenninhalt von 0,33 I umfasst, wobei zwei einander gegenüberliegende lange Seitenwände (2, 3) und zwei einander gegenüberliegende kurze Seitenwände (4, 5) einen umlaufenden Rahmen (6) bilden, der einen Boden (7) zum Abstützen von Getränkeflaschen aufweist.The invention relates to a modular box (1) for holding four beverage bottle containers, each beverage bottle container comprising six beverage bottles with a nominal capacity of 0.33 l, two opposing long side walls (2, 3) and two opposing short side walls (4, 5) form a circumferential frame (6) which has a base (7) for supporting beverage bottles.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Modulkasten zur Aufnahme von vier Getränkeflaschen-Gebinden, wobei jedes Getränkeflaschen-Gebinde sechs Getränkeflaschen mit einem Nenninhalt von 0,33 I umfasst, wobei zwei einander gegenüberliegende lange Seitenwände und zwei einander gegenüberliegende kurze Seitenwände einen umlaufenden Rahmen bilden, der einen Boden zum Abstützen von Getränkeflaschen aufweist.The invention relates to a modular box for holding four beverage bottle containers, each beverage bottle container comprising six beverage bottles with a nominal capacity of 0.33 l, two long side walls lying opposite one another and two short side walls lying opposite one another forming a circumferential frame that has a base for supporting beverage bottles.
Es sind Getränkeflaschen-Gebinde bekannt, bei denen in einer aus einem Karton hergestellten Umhüllung sechs Getränkeflaschen aufgenommen sind. Derartige Getränkeflaschen-Gebinde werden als Sixpack bezeichnet.There are known beverage bottle containers in which six beverage bottles are accommodated in an envelope made from a cardboard box. Such beverage bottle containers are referred to as six-packs.
Ein Modulkasten zur Aufnahme von Getränkeflaschen-Gebinden ist aus dem Design
Bei diesen herkömmlichen Modulkasten befinden sich die Flaschen vergleichsweise tief in dem Modulkasten, d. h. zwischen dem oberen Ende der Flaschen und dem oberen Rand des Modulkastens besteht ein beträchtlicher vertikaler Abstand. Dadurch ergeben sich allerdings Probleme beim Bestücken des Modulkastens mit den Getränkeflaschen-Gebinden, da die dafür verwendeten Anlagen für die Bestückung von Kästen eingerichtet sind, bei denen sich die Oberkante der Flaschen in der Nähe der Oberkante der Kästen befindet. Zur Befüllung von Modulkästen mit Getränkeflaschen-Gebinden ist daher eine entsprechende Umrüstung der Anlage erforderlich, was jedoch als nachteilig angesehen wird.In these conventional module boxes, the bottles are located comparatively deep in the module box, i. H. there is considerable vertical clearance between the top of the bottles and the top of the module box. However, this results in problems when equipping the module box with the beverage bottle containers, since the systems used for this purpose are set up for equipping boxes in which the top edge of the bottles is near the top edge of the boxes. In order to fill module boxes with beverage bottle containers, a corresponding conversion of the system is therefore necessary, which is, however, considered to be disadvantageous.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Modulkasten anzugeben, der einfach durch eine herkömmliche Anlage befüllt werden kann, ohne dass diese modifiziert werden muss.The invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a module box that can be easily filled by a conventional system without having to be modified.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist bei einem Modulkasten der eingangs genannten Art erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass der Boden gegenüber der Unterseite des umlaufenden Rahmens erhöht angeordnet ist, wobei der vertikale Abstand zwischen der Unterseite und dem Boden 40 mm bis 60 mm beträgt.To solve this problem, the invention provides for a module box of the type mentioned at the outset that the floor is arranged at a higher level than the underside of the surrounding frame, the vertical distance between the underside and the floor being 40 mm to 60 mm.
Die Erfindung beruht auf der Erkenntnis, dass die Bestückung eines Modulkastens mit Getränkeflaschen-Gebinden wesentlich vereinfacht werden kann, wenn sich der Boden anstelle an der üblichen unteren Position an einer demgegenüber er-höhten Position befindet. Dadurch befindet sich das obere Ende einer Flasche als Bestandteil eines Getränkeflaschen-Gebindes an einer erhöhten Position, geringfügig unterhalb des oberen Rands des Rahmens des Modulkastens. Dadurch kann der Modulkasten problemlos in einer herkömmlichen Abfüll- bzw. Bestückungsanlage mit den Getränkeflaschen-Gebinden bestückt werden.The invention is based on the knowledge that the equipping of a module box with beverage bottle containers can be significantly simplified if the base is in a raised position instead of in the usual lower position. As a result, the upper end of a bottle, as part of a beverage bottle container, is in an elevated position, slightly below the upper edge of the frame of the module box. As a result, the module box can easily be equipped with the beverage bottle containers in a conventional filling or filling system.
Der erfindungsgemäße Modulkasten ist beispielsweise für Getränkeflaschen gemäß dem Gemeinschaftsgeschmacksmuster EM 002205666-0001 mit einem Nenninhalt von 0,33 l geeignet. Derartige Getränkeflaschen können z. B. eine Höhe von 188 mm bis 205 mm besitzen.The modular box according to the invention is suitable, for example, for beverage bottles according to the Community design EM 002205666-0001 with a nominal capacity of 0.33 l. Such beverage bottles can, for. B. have a height of 188 mm to 205 mm.
Im Rahmen der Erfindung wird es bevorzugt, dass der vertikale Abstand zwischen der Unterseite des umlaufenden Rahmens und dem Boden, der zum Abstützen der Getränkeflaschen dient, 50 mm bis 54 mm beträgt. Dieser Bereich hat sich als besonders günstig herausgestellt und ermöglicht ein problemloses Bestücken des Modulkastens.In the context of the invention, it is preferred that the vertical distance between the underside of the surrounding frame and the base, which is used to support the beverage bottles, is 50 mm to 54 mm. This area has proven to be particularly favorable and enables the module box to be loaded without problems.
Der erfindungsgemäße Modulkasten zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass Seitenflächen und die Unterseite des Rahmens und die Unterseite des Bodens einen zusammenhängenden Freiraum begrenzen. Demgegenüber ist bei herkömmlichen Modulkasten kein Freiraum oder lediglich ein minimaler Freiraum vorhanden, der üblicherweise durch mehrere Profilabschnitte unterteilt ist, auf denen der herkömmliche Modulkasten abgestützt ist.The modular box according to the invention is characterized in that side surfaces and the underside of the frame and the underside of the floor delimit a coherent free space. In contrast, with conventional module boxes there is no free space or only a minimal free space, which is usually divided by several profile sections on which the conventional module box is supported.
Profilabschnitte sind bei einem herkömmlichen Modulkasten die Getränkeflaschen angeordnet, die sich somit in einer tiefen Position befinden.In a conventional modular box, the beverage bottles are arranged in profile sections, which are thus in a deep position.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Modulkasten wird es bevorzugt, dass parallel zu den gegenüberliegenden langen Seitenwänden eine Gefache-Längswand ausgebildet ist. Die Gefache-Längswand unterteilt den Innenraum des Modulkastens in zwei Gefache und erleichtert das Positionieren der Getränkeflaschen-Gebinde, sodass je zwei Getränkeflaschen-Gebinde in ein Gefache eingesetzt werden können.In the case of the modular box according to the invention, it is preferred that a longitudinal partition wall is formed parallel to the opposite long side walls. The compartment longitudinal wall divides the interior of the module box into two compartments and makes it easier to position the beverage bottle containers, so that two beverage bottle containers can be inserted into one compartment.
Der Boden des erfindungsgemäßen Modulkastens kann als Ringe aufweisende Gitterstruktur ausgebildet sein, wobei die Ringe durch Längs- und Querstege miteinander verbunden sind. Der erfindungsgemäße Modulkasten zeichnet sich durch ein besonders geringes Gewicht und einen niedrigen Materialbedarf aus.The base of the module box according to the invention can be designed as a lattice structure having rings, the rings being connected to one another by longitudinal and transverse webs. The modular box according to the invention is characterized by a particularly low weight and low material requirements.
Vorzugsweise weist die den Boden bildende Gitterstruktur parallel zu den langen Seitenwänden verlaufende wellenförmige Stege auf. Vorzugsweise sind die wellenförmigen Stege in derselben Ebene wie die Ringe angeordnet, sodass die Getränkeflaschen sowohl auf den Ringen als auch auf den wellenförmigen Stegen abgestützt sind.The lattice structure forming the base preferably has undulating webs running parallel to the long side walls. The wave-shaped webs are preferably arranged in the same plane as the rings, so that the beverage bottles are supported both on the rings and on the wave-shaped webs.
Es liegt auch im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass innerhalb des Rahmens des Modulkastens zwei Reihen von sich vom Boden nach oben erstreckenden Pinolen ausgebildet sind. Vorzugsweise weist jede der beiden Reihen fünf nebeneinander angeordnete Pinolen auf. Die Pinolen sind so angeordnet, dass sie beim Einsetzen eines Getränkeflaschen-Gebindes durch dessen Durchbrüche hindurchgreifen. Wenn Getränkeflaschen in den Modulkasten eingesetzt werden, werden sie durch die Pinolen positioniert.It is also within the scope of the invention that two rows of quills extending upward from the floor are formed within the frame of the module box. Each of the two rows preferably has five quills arranged next to one another. The quills are arranged in such a way that when a beverage bottle container is inserted, they reach through its openings. When beverage bottles are inserted into the module box, they are positioned by the quills.
Vorzugsweise ist eine Umfangsfläche einer Pinole des erfindungsgemäßen Modulkastens aus vier konkaven Flächen gebildet, die somit an die Außenkontur der Getränkeflaschen angepasst ist.A circumferential surface of a quill of the module box according to the invention is preferably formed from four concave surfaces, which is thus adapted to the outer contour of the beverage bottles.
